Chapter 453 - 453: School began in Cloud Peak Academy
Yue Ling had never seen anyone like Ye Li before, and she looked at him in utter astonishment.
Ye Li’s appearance was undeniably the most attractive she had ever seen, but that wasn’t the key point. The real shock was his strength.
The fact that her Bone-Penetrating Palm had no effect on this person, apart from revealing his incredible defense, indicated his level…
Yue Ling couldn’t bring herself to think about it any further; she really didn’t want to.
“Let’s go,” Yue Ling said to the people behind her. Her fair face was filled with desolation. She, who had always been arrogant, had finally encountered someone who made her feel anything but proud.
Suddenly, Yue Ling recalled what her father had told her.
“Ling’er, even though your genetic talent and level are good, this world is full of geniuses. When you go to Cloud Peak Academy, you must keep a low profile.”
Back then, she had scorned his advice, but now, she realized she had been a joke.
Just as Yue Ling and Wang Kang were preparing to leave, Ye Li stopped them.
“Wait.”
Yue Ling turned back, looking at Ye Li with a puzzled expression.
“I told you, I’ve already given you a chance to leave, but you didn’t appreciate it,” Ye Li spoke slowly.
Upon hearing this, Yue Ling and Wang Kang were both taken aback.
“What… What do you want?” Yue Ling asked.
Ye Li smiled, “You’ve seen it; we spent a fair amount of money on this food, and you…”
Yue Ling quickly understood his meaning and had Wang Kang settle the bill. She was eager to leave the restaurant now because she felt utterly embarrassed.
“Senior, you’re truly amazing,” Xia Xi said with a smile.
Yang Xiong, Zhang Du, and Li Yun felt the same way. They had immense admiration for Ye Li; their respect for him had reached an unimaginable level.
The people in the restaurant were all exchanging bewildered glances. Most of them were heading to Cloud Peak Academy, and in their home cities, they were considered geniuses. However, when compared to Ye Li, they couldn’t help but feel overshadowed.
Ye Li and his group stayed in Yun City for several days, and finally, the day for the school opening of Cloud Peak Academy arrived.
Thousands of new students headed towards Cloud Peak Mountain, and after presenting their Cloud Peak Tokens, Ye Li and his group arrived at the Cloud Peak Academy’s training ground.
The training ground was filled with thousands of new students, and their faces were more or less filled with smiles. Entering Cloud Peak Academy represented limitless future achievements for them.
At this moment, a woman in her late twenties, dressed in martial attire, stood before them. She was a seventh-tier Evolved Being.
“I am your new student mentor, my name is Feng Ling, and you can call me Mentor Feng Ling.”
“Now, what you have to do is challenge the Martial Tower. The higher the level you reach, the greater the rewards you will receive.”
Feng Ling scanned the new students and said.
All the new students were delighted to hear this. They had never expected that they would be rewarded so soon after arriving at Cloud Peak Academy.
“Now, I will take you to the Martial Tower.”
Shortly after, Feng Ling led the group towards the Martial Tower.
In a matter of minutes, the new students all gathered at the base of the tower.
The Martial Tower had 30 levels and had an exquisite appearance.
“Now, let’s begin the challenge of the Martial Tower!”
With a light command from Feng Ling, the new students began rushing towards the tower in a mad scramble.
As the tower’s entrance was only so wide, a chaotic situation erupted, and it eventually devolved into a brawl.
Xia Xi’s group also joined in the scuffle, but Ye Li remained in place..
